Personally I think the Touring version is a far nicer car than the winged beast (although I wouldn't turn my nose up at one!). Looks really good in white too.

Great choice :)

Interesting I heard that the factory was shutting all sports car production (ie Boxster, Cayman, 911) not all petrols so information is still not crystal clear I think. Sounded like April builds were the last of the known slots before the 3 month shut off.

On a 911 note, please message me if anyone wants a 911 GTS - I can access a probable late Feb / early March build slot for March delivery if the spec is locked quickly - the OPC has just had additional allocation. I will happily share my OPC contact details.

Others: way too many...

As I'm no longer a youngster I felt that the more discreet and 'under the radar' look of the Touring version would be a better choice for me :)
It does look good, and as Kas says, probably as close as you can get to a 911R, and for about a quarter of the price!

I'm no longer a youngster either, but if I ever get a GT3, I'd opt for a bright colour and the rear wing! :lol: Maybe Miami, Racing Yellow, Guards Red or even flat white (with Martini stripes!) 😎

That is so very tempting, Virage, but I must be strong and hold on to my Panamera! Plus, I couldn't stomach the likely hit of £13k to £15k or more of depreciation on my Panny 😬

Hi Virage

In addition to the spec, please add sport tailpipes recently fitted by Tewkesbury OPC.

I collected the car at the end of March from Tewkesbury. It's on just over 13k miles now.

And it's had an oil change already!

Cheers,

Simon
